This paper studied the training methods less affected by the emotional variation for the development of the robust speech recognition system. For this purpose, the effect of emotional variation on the speech signal and the speech recognition system were studied using speech database containing various emotions. The performance of the speech recognition system trained by using the speech signal containing no emotion is deteriorated if the test speech signal contains the emotions because of the emotional difference between the test and training data. In this study, it is observed that vocal tract length of the speaker is affected by the emotional variation and this effect is one of the reasons that makes the performance of the speech recognition system worse. In this paper, a training method that cover the speech variations is proposed to develop the emotionally robust speech recognition system. Experimental results from the isolated word recognition using HMM showed that propose method reduced the error rate of the conventional recognition system by 28.4% when emotional test data was used.
